We have already discussed faerie bridges and how they lead from here to there, and vice versa. Get on one in this world and, if you follow it properly, you end up in the faerie world. Get on one in the faerie world and, if you’re very lucky, you end up back in this world. Either way, there’s a portal at each end.
What, then, do we make of this bridge? Where does it start and where does it
end? And how do we get to it in the
first place? Because it is a bridge, and all bridges get us from
one place to another place that we couldn’t easily or otherwise get to. If someone or something didn’t need to get to
either place, the bridge wouldn’t exist, but clearly it does. Maybe it materialized by accident. Maybe we were never meant to see it. Maybe if I go back to the spot where I took
the picture, it will be gone. Actually,
I know that if I go back to the spot
where I took the picture, it will be gone.
Are there bridges like this in your life, invisible
bridges? Are you aware of them? Perhaps you could take a bridge from one
frame of mind to another. Perhaps you
could take a bridge from one life outcome to another. Maybe there’s a bridge like this, just
waiting for you to find it, so you can get from a closed portion of your mind
to an open portion. And just maybe,
there’s a bridge somewhere to the people you have lost, who never die in your
mind. If you can think of something, it
exists somewhere, even if it’s not in this world. If it didn't exist somewhere (even if only in your fantasy), you couldn't think of it. The trick is to find the bridge.
